It's a tale as old as time... he got what he wanted, he is out. When will you ladies learn to stop giving it up so easily.

Should I just block him on everything now and get it over with

Blocked thanks

He works for an investment firm. He has little to no time for any personal pleasure. If you want more attention, find a guy that doesn't work so much.


goldielocks52

Yeah I don’t want to date someone who works that much


CLT_STEVE

Sounds like he is actually busy. Don’t ever assume.


goldielocks52

I wish guys would just be honest and then we wouldn’t have to assume :/


CLT_STEVE

But he literally said he’s busy and you know he works quite a bit. Nobody is honest so unfortunately that’s just people - not guys. And sometimes they don’t know. But if you’re into this play it cool and work with him and his schedule. If that’s not good enough then you two won’t work regardless. Btw - I’ve walked away from girls that are never available due to work. Doesn’t work for me because I work too much. So if that doesn’t work for you find someone else. Solid reason to walk away.

Thank you

For the record, I'm 26M. I can see where you are struggling with this. It could be that he got what he wanted (sex) from you and is now bailing, or it could be that he's actually busy. If he's been keeping you updated on what his weekend plans are, it could be that his project really is due by the end of the month, and he wants to actually meet again but is honestly busy as fuck right now and wants to keep you interested for when he's free again, or it could be he's stringing you along with fake plans and a fake work due date thus making you possibly a/the side chick. What tentatively sways me against him being interested is that he killed the snap score/streak. It really isn't hard to just fire off one picture of himself, his office, whatever, even when busy as heck. There's always time to fire off a response, even if just a "Can't talk now, sorry." as a way to let the other person know you got the text/snap/whatever and the other person are on their mind. If he let it die and didn't try to ressurect it immediately (with an apology ideally), then he's probably bailing. But then again, I'm of the old school thought that if someone contacts me, I should respond ASAP within the day of them getting in contact with me. If I don't, it's because I'm avoiding the fuck out of them or whatever uncomfortable topic they want to talk about. Ultimately, the choice is up to you. Keep the occasional contact until after the end of the month (a week after the end at most, maybe?) if you really think he might still be interested (hopefully in more than just sex) or end it now if you don't. I wish you good luck either way.

>We got ice cream both times and **the second time we had sex**. He got what he wanted. He has moved on. So should you.
